So, I fell off my bike......

Our friends Lee and Kristina were so nice to give us their old mountain bikes a couple of weeks ago because they bought new ones. We've had a great time getting out and riding around on them. I think it has easily been 7 years or more since I've actually ridden a bike. It's a lot of fun - unless you fall off. Riding a bike in the dark isn't a good idea. I found this out friday night when I was riding through a parking lot and hit a speed bump. I seriously ate the pavement and my bike chain came off so I had to walk the rest of the way home, about 2 miles. This picture does not do my injuries justice - I have a gash in my hand, skinned my knee, ripped up my elbow, not to mention the aches and pains the next morning. Anyway.....it could have been much worse - I'm thankful I didn't knock out my teeth or break my arm. From now on I ride during the day. On a happier note - Isaiah and I had lunch with his half brother Malachi this week. Malachi was adopted by a great couple here in town and we all agree the boys should grow up knowing each other as family. Sweet Malachi was holding Isaiah's hand on the park bench.

I was curious about the bike story. Thanks for the update. Can't wait to see your wounds on Tuesday.
